Network operators will have access to Stingray Festival 4K, Stingray Hits 4K, and Stingray
Ambiance 4K

Cologne, October 14th, 2019 – The German umbrella organization DNMG has partnered with Stingray, a
leading music, media and technology company, to provide three native 4K UHD specialty TV channels,
Stingray Festival 4K, Stingray Hits 4K, and Stingray Ambiance 4K to its network operators in Germany.
DNMG is the first partner in the German-speaking area to introduce Stingray’s 4K UHD portfolio to its
network operators. The partnership will provide network operators a significant edge that will appeal to
subscribers who crave the pristine quality of 4K viewing.

Stingray’s 4K channels offer subscribers a wide selection of entertainment, including concerts, theatre
performances, electrifying DJ sets, and beautiful ballet and opera with Stingray Festival 4K; music videos
from today’s biggest stars, indie darlings, and up-and-coming artists with Stingray Hits 4K; and beautiful
natural imagery set to pristine nature sounds and tailor-made soundtracks with Stingray Ambiance 4K.
The channels will be available on the playout server in the EQUINIX FR5 data center in Frankfurt/Main.
The operators only need to pick up the signal via their carrier VPN connection from Equinix via a
CrossConnect.

“There are currently more than ten million 4K televisions on the market, with seven million additional sets
per year. The partnership includes both free TV and pay rights for all channels, giving network operators
unprecedented flexibility to deliver the highest 4K quality to their customers.,” said Ingo P. Schuchert,
Managing Director at DNMG. “In order to make this USP possible, DNMG is investing for the first time in
its own systems and infrastructure, thus creating the basis for future 4K business models for our network
operators.”

“We are thrilled to embark on this agreement with DNMG, especially as it marks the first entry of the
Stingray 4K TV channels in the German-speaking market,” stated Mathieu Peloquin, Senior Vice-
President, Marketing and Content of Stingray. “The fast pace of technological innovation continues to
provide new avenues for growth and partnerships, and Stingray is proud to be a front-runner in providing
new entertainment opportunities for music-lovers worldwide.”

DNMG, and the network operators organized within the German umbrella organization, are playing a
pioneering role in the roll-out of 4K by investing in the development of the technical infrastructure and
financing the top-quality 4K UHD content. The first network operators to benefit from this launch include
Stadtwerke Konstanz, RFT, wilhelm.tel and willy.tel.
